 Hi Matthias,

 I am afraid that there are reports of regressions, namely #772958.  Ivo
 reported that the example works in Jessie but fails in unstable.

 #772958 reports an issue in testing, with a binutils version number found in
 unstable. I asked the submitter to clarify. Also Ivo reported doesn't help
 much. Please be more specific.

 
 Hi Matthias,
 
 The message I wanted to convey was that Ivo (ivodd) informed me that he
 had tested the example mentioned in #772958 provided by the submitter
 and found it working as intended in testing.  However, trying the same
 example in unstable reproduce the error reported in the bug.

strange, because the original submitter replied now that he cannot reproduce
this in testing.

 I'll prepare an upload anyway.

 Matthias

 
 Thank you, it will be much appreciated.

now uploaded.

Bug#774211: freeze exception for binutils 2.25-3

2015-02-11 Thread Luciano Bello
Hi guys,
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17512 is still growing, 
and porting all the patches to 2.24.90.20141023-1 is getting less and less 
trivial. If you short the distance with the upstream version, that will put a 
lot of work of the security-team off :)

Thanks for your work in the release team.

Cheers, luciano

Did someone from the release team have a chance to look into these?
If the version from sid isn't acceptable we'll need some time to
fix this through tpu (and binutils-mingw-w64 needs to be dealt with
as well)

Cheers,
Moritz

unfortunately, there was no help with a backport :-/  2.25-4 now backports the
changes up to the end of 2014, leaving out the new 2015 changes for 17512.  I
won't spend time on these, as upstream committed to backport these to the 2.25
branch themself.

Bug#774211: freeze exception for binutils 2.25-3

2014-12-30 Thread Matthias Klose
Package: release.debian.org
Tags: sid jessie

please grant a freeze exception for binutils 2.25-3 in jessie. The current
version in jessie is built from the 2.25 release branch, and this update would
move the final 2.25 into jessie.  The package probably has more changes than
needed, otoh it fixes some issues which should get into jessie:

 - several fixes for CVE issues, the security team asked to include these
   into jessie.
- CVE-2014-8484 (PR binutils/17509).
- CVE-2014-8485, CVE-2014-8504 (PR binutils/17510).
- CVE-2014-8501, CVE-2014-8502, CVE-2014-8503 (PR binutils/17512).

 - gold fixes on ARM32, now capable to build chromium.

 - enabled gold on arm64.

 - A lot of fixes and updates for both the new ppc64el and arm64
   architectures. These new architectures were added pretty close to the
   freeze, so some updates shouldn't come unexpected.

 - Fixes RC issue #728529 (the rebuilt smartmontools 6.3+svn4002-2+b2
   apparently already is in testing).

 - The packages with the binNMU requests in #773972 should transition
   to testing as well.

Attached is the Debian changelog, mentioning too all upstream changes, minus the
ones which only affect architectures not released by Debian.  I'm planning no
further binutils for jessie.
